Travel yearbook
All your favourite holiday photos in one photo book
For most people going on holiday is one of the most exciting times of the year. Whether it's for a long holiday, a relaxing couple of weeks or a long weekend away taking photos whilst on holiday is a great way to reminisce about all the good times you’ve had. By keeping them somewhere safe you will have some unforgettable memories to look back on time and time again. We will show you how to create a breathtaking travel yearbook. You will be able to look back on the past year and reminisce about any fantastic holidays you’ve had.
Itinerary maps
An itinerary can be helpful for round trips with different stops or for long stopovers as it can be illustrated using maps in a photo yearbook. In your travel yearbook the map can show each new place you have visited and it can give an overview of your tour with the marked places on the map. You can buy maps on the internet or scan or take a picture of the map on your smartphone.
Tip
When using the ifolor Designer, you can label the map by inserting textboxes and placing them next to or on the image. You can use the arrows from Clip Art to mark important places on the map. You will find textboxes and other design elements under "Design".
Relive the good times
Some experiences such as funny moments, funny coincidences or something special can mean a lot to you and they will create some unforgettable memories. Capture the funny, good and sentimental highlights of your travels not only in pictures, but also in text form. With the help of freely placeable textboxes, you can integrate small and large texts into your travel yearbook. For example, design one page of the book with some photos from one part of your holiday and write down the details of the experience on the other page. This way, you can keep the memory alive and reminisce about it time and time again. If you prefer to take handwritten notes or you have a diary, you can simply photograph or scan your written text and insert it as an image
How to organise your photos from your holidays
Whether it is just a holiday or if you spent a whole year travelling there will be a lot of photos to look through. Find out more about how you can organise and sort through the mountains of photos you have taken whilst being away. By following our simple tips on organising your holiday photos you will be able to use the best photos for your photo book.
Your holiday highlights in a mini photo book
In just a few simple clicks you can put your best holiday highlights and travel experiences together in an ifolor booklet. You can design the mini photo book directly on the go in the ifolor app, via the ifolor Designer or on the website.
Add your favourite songs to your individual travel yearbook
There is always a song that pops into your head and reminds you of past holidays. Add the matching song to your travel yearbook so that you can reminisce about all the good times you’ve had on holiday. Get inspired and discover the ifolor channel on Spotify, which has some fantastic playlists. You can use Spotify Soundwave to integrate these or other playlists, favourite songs, entire Spotify profiles or your own music compilations into your travel yearbook. The Soundwave is a code and it will appear for each song, profile and playlist on Spotify when you open the menu via the three dots. Below there is an image of what the Soundwave icon looks like for the ifolor playlists on Spotify:
You can have the Soundwave icon printed in a suitable place in your photo book as seen in the screenshot. Whilst flicking through your individually designed travel yearbook, you can scan the Soundwave icon with your Spotify app to play the chosen playlist or song. To do this, start by opening the Spotify app and using the search option and then tap on the line and then select the camera symbol in the top right hand corner to activate the Soundwave scanner.
Alternatively, you can also print your holidays songs and playlists as a QR code for your photo book. To do this, start by copying the Spotify link with your chosen song or playlist and then get a QR code, which you can get, for example on qr-code-generator.com. This will convert your chosen song or playlist for free into a QR code.
Tip
You can use Spotify Wrapped as a Soundwave or QR code in your individual photo yearbook, which through music will make you feel nostalgic as you look back on all the good times you’ve had. At the end of the year, Spotify always creates a playlist of your favourite songs from the past year, which you can review. This playlist then appears in your app and via the Soundwave icon or it can be converted into a QR code that you can then add to your photo book and reminisce time and time again thanks to the accompanying song or playlist.
Photo mishaps
Most people take a lot of photos whilst on holiday or on their travels, however the best photos will be the ones that end up being put into a travel yearbook. Not every photo will be perfect, but it is these types of photos that will make your travel yearbook perfect! Brighten up your photo book by adding a separate chapter for your outtakes in between or at the end of the book. Funny random photos of things that are going on in the background, photobombs by animals, mishaps or situations in which you happened to take a photo at exactly the right time. After returning home it is always these types of photos that will make you laugh time and time again. They will also give your travel yearbook a particularly personal touch.
Divide your travel photo book into categories
You can divide your photo book into categories, instead of putting your photos in the photo book in chronological order such as from the start to the end of your holiday or from the first holiday to the last holiday of the year. Before putting your photo book together think about how you would like to organise your photos. For example, what about the most beautiful beaches, the most breathtaking views, the most bizarre means of transport or the most interesting encounters with people or animals? Use the provided textboxes to briefly add a small comment about the photo or to reminisce about the funny memories when it was taken.
Photo book premium photo paper
Keep your favourite holiday memories in a high-quality photo book with real premium photo paper. Thanks to the flat pages, you can view large photos on both pages without having to fold them over.
Photo towel with your favourite holiday photo
Another way to reminisce about a fantastic holiday is to put your favourite photo from a particular holiday onto a towel. This way, you'll always be able to carry this special memory with you whether you are on holiday or you are going swimming.
Screenshots of social media posts
Nowadays people like to share their best holiday memories on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram etc. Screenshots of your social media posts in combination with great holiday photos are a great addition to any travel yearbook. Add your holiday photo posts to your own individual photo book, which friends have liked and commented on. This is a nice way to look back on past holidays with fond memories.
Add a couple of posts to a certain part of your photo yearbook and finish it off by adding a fantastic frame. You can choose from a variety of frames and mounts in ifolor Designer by clicking on the "Design" tab or using "Patterns" on the toolbar.
Design your very own individual travel yearbook!
